Encoding refers to a psychological process in which the sender of a message
assigns symbols, such as words, sounds, or gestures, to his or her thoughts and
feelings. Competent communicators are able to translate their ideas into
communication symbols appropriate for the message and the receiver.
Phase 3 of Linear Model of Communication: Transmitting the message -
ANSWERS-A message is "sent" from sender to receiver, using a particular channel
that is selected by the sender. The channel is the medium that carries the
message such h as email, telephone, face-to-face communication, or a written
document.
Phase 4 of Linear Model of Communication: Perceiving the message - ANSWERS-
When a receiver detects that a message has been sent, he or she attends to it and
perceives it in some fashion.
Phase 5 of Linear Model of Communication: Decoding and assigning meaning to
the message - ANSWERS-When a receiver assigns meaning to the message that
has been communicated, he or she is engaging in a psychological process known
as decoding. Decoding is the opposite of encoding (the activity that the sender
engaged in at the beginning of the exchange). The receiver translates the symbols
